Hi Damien,sorry couldnt make it this past weekend...got that footage on a disc though.Dont know Im coming through to the vlei again but might start "TRYING" to put that edge together later this week.Looks like a lost cause though.

Hey Borries, that is quite a storm. Saw it on the news here as well.

We had perfect weather here on saturday. I didnt have a plane to fly but Peter let me have a go on his H9 260, that is a fun plane to fly. The DA50 pulls it around pretty good.
There was a major mid-air, Micheals "mellow yellow" hit Tims Cap. I have never seen so many pieces of plane falling from the sky!

Warren, would be cool if you could fix the edge, it did look like a big job though.

No problem, anything to help a fellow Giant brother.

The 24% is in ARC form, so its built just waiting for some coverting and paint
R2500.-- for the plane.

It would be perfect for a G26 or other small petrol engine or an OS1.60.

Hey peter
Is there a site where you and damien got your mvvs engines from,Do you know if they make a small engine in the 26cc range

Damien,funny you should mention the storm you saw on the weather.Im just back from the video store.Saw a movie there "AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH".

Its a documentary about global warming and how its directly affecting
the weather these days(TSUNAMIS,STORMS,ETC)....I was standing there thinking..."Damn global warming,f**king up our flying weather",haha.
Do yourselves a favour and see it.Pretty informing.

Thanks Peter, I will contact you about getting one very soon.
Sorry Jason, I could not help you out there, I will keep my ears to the ground though.

Are any of you guy's interested to come to Namibias bigest fly-in in August. We have the anual Karibib event every year from the 24-27 August on a very large military field in the desert. Huge fun.

We need some more Giants there, I'm sick of all the Ultra Sticks making a noise.

I will post some pictures soonest.
Regards
Andreas
